    Yep on his range the bullet hitting the target/bank should be the loudest noise.
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.

    8.5 grains trailboss gives me 970 fps and 2 inch groups at 50 metres with 151 grain cast lead hp. My 14 year old daughter is going to use this for hunting as it has very little recoil

    You should up the load a bit mine does 1040fps and groups 1/2" at 50 metres and 1.4" at 100 metres a little more speed may tighten your group

    tried 9 grains and was quite noisey, didnt check it over a chrony, but the group did tighten up. Will try between 8.5 and9 grains and see what this will do. Thanks

    Ignorance is bliss. I have absolutely no idea what you guys are on about except someone is eating pork now.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Pengy bring your stability calculator to the Toby shoot this year. I would like you to calculate Gibo after a night on the piss. There is no way he will be subsonic though.
